Default Volpe fails smell test — again

When is this guy going to drop out of the race? Just another example of liberal corruption and he wants to be the leader of this country. If Liberal card holders happen to elect this guy...I will seriously puke.

First it was taking donations from little kids...now it is signing up people for his leadership push who are dead....when will this stop.

From the conservatives stand point, Volpe is the best thing to happen to the Liberal leadership race

Forgive me for being oblivious, but don't the liberals have some sort of control on who can run and who can't?

I can't believe many parties would want a guy like this even trying for the spot.

I know, you think they would have tossed this guy out during the first incident. He has a lot of support from the old Chretien people, so I think they are the ones keeping him in the race.

Just make sure he runs in Calgary West. If Rob Anders can get in, anyone has hope.

Volpe must have been an Ottawa Rough Riders fan.

Take news from The Star with a grain of salt when considering the Liberal leadership campaign. They are 100% backing Ignatieff. Does anyone else find it peculiar that Ignatieff's name is at the top of the "Meed the Leadership Candidates" page even though he is no where near the top alphabetically.

I think Volpe is scum as well, but I think most politicians are scum. Just dont villify him unless there is proof - an article in the Toronto Star doesnt equate to proof.

There is history though. A man like Volpe smells like feces until he proves he has taken a shower, not the other way around.
